Definitely not a bug. This is a weird Windows mode and it must be doing 
something funky to the pipe between the two processes. One side writes 2-byte 
UTF-16, what does the other side receive? Is the Windows kernel doing on-the-
fly transcoding? Or not?

But it's definitely not a bug in Qt. Maybe we can call it an unsupported 
feature.
